Note: 

The calibration procedure may cause false alarm and/or signal loss to the monitor. 
Appropriate precautions may be required. 

 
 
Refer to Figure 5.1 to perform the following calibration procedure: 

1)  Remove cover from transmitter housing. 

2)  Plug in “clip on” type test leads fully into jacks on multi-meter and clip onto the edge 

of the transmitter board on the test points COM TP11 and SIG TP12 as shown in 
figure. 

3)  Switch-ON multi-meter and select DC volts range to read greater than 1.00 VDC. 

4)  Cover the sides of sensor with a clean cloth or similar to prevent a draft on the 

sensor. 

5)  Apply a Zero gas sample or with the sensor in clean air, with a calibration adapter 

cup firmly and completely over the sensor opening on side of AMC-VersaTox for 2 
minutes with a flow rate of 0.5 to 1 liters per minute. 

6)  After 2 minutes adjust the Zero trimmer for a stabilized zero reading of 0.00 VDC 

measured at the test points (TP11, TP12.) see Figure 5-1 (except oxygen).  

7)  Unplug test leads and connect “Remote Calibration Lead” to multi-meter.  The 

BLACK lead to negative or common (-) and the RED lead to positive (+) 

8)  Insert plug end of “Remote Calibration Lead” fully into CAL jack on the transmitter. 

9)  Select DC milliamp range on the multi-meter to read greater than 20 mA full scale. 

10) Apply the Span gas sample, with a calibration adapter cup firmly and completely over 

the sensor opening on side of AMC-VersaTox for 2 minutes with a flow rate of 0.5 to 
1 liters per minute. The span gas sample need not be the full scale concentration but 
could be a fraction of this.  Since the transmitter output range is 4-20 mA, a full scale 
concentration should register 20 mA after a few moments exposure.  A half scale 
concentration, accordingly, should provide 12 mA and so on. 

11) After 2 minutes adjust the Span trimmer for the correct Span current reading.
